This is an amazing lipliner that is well worth the price. I wouldn't rave about a semi-high end product unless I thought it was unique. This liner is a caramel beige that really gives my lips dimension. It is a sophisticated, but casual look all at the same time. I wore it with MAC C-thru lipglass and Fetish lipgloss in Crazy, a light beige-gold. I think Stripdown would go with a lot of lipliners and lipsticks. The effect (casual, sophisticated nude) is somewhat like the dc'd Maybelline Greatwear l/l in Nude Shimmer, but Stripdown is lighter more caramel and has no shimmer. If someone is looking for a Nude Shimmer-like effect, I would recommend trying Stripdown. I'm NC20, but a bit more neutral. A lot of beiges wash me out, but Stripdown is great even on a nude face.
